Duck, duck, duck, goose!

I've finally figured out what the deal is with the macro setting on this camera. It focuses only exactly in the middle of the picture frame, which is maddening for someone like me, who likes to offset her subjects according to the rule of thirds. But at last I was able to get some pictures using the macro that were in focus. Then I just cropped them to offset the flowers (and the grasshopper). The last photo is a bit indelicate. Just a heads up.
